Bass Musician Magazine - SPECIAL August 2014 Female Bassist Issue | Page 184

Check out some women that are proficient on their instruments and follow them, learn from them, and practice!! What can we look forward to from you in the coming year? Fall 2014, I have an EP coming out called, “Say Somethin’.” It is in the mixing stages now. It features Michael Jackson and Alice Cooper guitarist Orianthi. There is also a song produced by Dave Stewart. This EP has a very commercial rock/funk feel to it. Lenny Kravitz /Nik West feel to it. Also, in the winter, I will be releasing an acoustic guitar album version of my most popular songs. This will showcase what I can do with just my acoustic guitar and voice. I am also working diligently on my baby, The Queen of Strings Competition, which helps promote and expose the world to hundreds of female guitar and bass players all over the world. The competition is judged by myself, as well as Rhonda Smith, Jennifer Batten, Orianthi, and many more.
